Hello @fk-aconso ,

I quickly checked the Fiori guidelines ( https://experience.sap.com/internal/fiori-design-web/responsive-table/#properties ) and the property alternateRowColors is marked there as "Do not use.". So, from our design department side the functionality seems not be considered as important.

Can you please describe in more detail why this functionality is important for you and who needs this functionality? This feedback would be really helpful.

Thanks and Best Regards
Jens

Hi,

mainly because our customers are used to it. The feature has been active in our UI5 applications for years and for the new applications based on the web components, we receive feedback that a return to alternating rows would be very welcome. Users state that it is easier to read information from tables because the rows are better separated from each other.

Best regards
